Great games by the PKers all night long, awesome 5-3 kill by Backlund, Tanev and Giordano. Tanev played 8:52 shorthanded minutes tonight! The guy is a machine.
Matthew Tkachuk was the Tkachuk we love. Lindholm came to battle, happy to see Monahan score, he was good tonight and deserved it. Captain Giordano deserves a big shout out. Solid all night at both ends of the rink.
Good for Sam to pot that goal and then call it the easiest goal of his career because that empty net miss was one of the worst shots that I've ever seen. He obviously couldn't believe he was getting an easier one and declined.
So happy for Rittich. The Flames tried to give his shutout away multiple times with stupid undisciplined penalties and he said simply said fork that. Again, really was an amazing performance by Big Save and the penalty killers.

Defenceman dove across and it deflected off the blade of his skate. You can see and hear it when you play it back. Bennett should have got rid of it more quickly, or even better, Mangi should have shot it rather than passing. He had the better angle and there would have been no risk of a bobbled or blocked pass, and the defender wouldn’t have had time to get across like he did.
